I dont know if the version on facebook and the one on the website is different, but on facebook i have
Ultra: 17812 Sprint: 1:34 Marathon: 375626
Now that I look at it, it seems in the version of ultra on the website you get back to backs as the next line you clear, not the next block you drop.

I think that's how it's supposed to be? Back-to-back means "getting tetrises in a row" or "getting t-spin doubles in a row" without any singles/doubles/triples/tspin singles in between, I believe.

Oh yeah, your right it is like that on facebook too lol

How is making a new topic better than bumping?

oops, it isn't? I was under the impression that bumping sucks. and it's a blog anyways :/

I meant it the other way around: if it's worth posting a new topic about something, it's certainly worth bumping an old topic instead; if anything, standards are higher here for starting topics than for posting in them.
The kind of bump that's bad is the kind where you wouldn't make a topic for it: you're just posting some trivial response to a thread that died a year ago. Anyway, sorry for derailing your blog.

Oh; thanks. I'll keep that in mind for the future (guess I don't start enough topics usually?)

Personally I'd prefer people post a new topic and include a link to the previous topic. That way people don't read a bunch of old posts that don't apply thinking it's a new topic (it's pretty easy to miss the "THIS IS AN OLD POST" image, especially if it's a long OP).
That's my personal preference, not some official TL moderation policy though.

And ughhhh I can't do Ultra at ALL, I've watched the top 10 and I have a general idea of what to do, I'm just not very fast at it. Like ~26k with tspins, and around the same doing tetrises.

you suck for showing me tetris
unfortunately my ultra score tetrising is ~25k because I am kinda slow at reaction time
but t-spinning is nice because it's kind of a set pattern, and after some time you get used to it :D
and thanks mikeymoo for that :O I didn't know about that. You can probably add flamewheel91//flamewheel91 to that list

flamewheel91//flamewheel91 Hmm. To Mr. Mikeymoo: Practice makes perfect, also watch your colours. Think about it this way: Pair each red with a T Green with orange Blue with yellow Long pieces are long.
Divide your stack into three parts: the T-spinning right side, the 2-piece combo-stacking middle, and the leftover left. So for every green piece you put in the middle, an orange must go there as well. Green on the left, orange on the left. This way of thinking helped me a lot.

Yeah, I get that, but what happens when you get three green pieces without an orange in between? I end up improvising and that slows me down a lot. Also, I can't get set up properly very fast. I have to reset maybe 2-3 times before I can get an alright start.
|

Well, the idea is to not get three green pieces without an orange in between. There are some tricks you can use, involving setting the green piece on the left and soft dropping a blue. Darn it's hard to do it picture-wise on here, but I think some replays will have it.

yeah. I had fun not doing hard drops for 17+ minutes and spinning pieces idly for 2.5. and then doing hard drops for like 40 seconds.
stupid mission.

marathon 704183 ultra 28274 sprint 0:53: 90
I do everything the old fashioned way, with tetrises. I learned how to do the t-spin with the T blocks, but I can't do it fast enough to make it worth doing and I don't feel like taking the time to learn to do it well.
I got up to level 19 on the 5p thing, but never got to level 20. This was when it first opened though, not sure how well I would do now. But even then, people at level 19 were going at like 0:50:00 for 40 lines. I got to level 20 on the 2p thing too, but it doesn't seem that people were very good, it was very easy to do.

I only play on the Facebook app
sprint: 1:10:06

Is it really? I got my sprint record on facebook.

interesting. I am quite a bit slower on facebook (~4 seconds for sprint and ~3k for ultra...)
I got a new ultra high score of 62620 :D

Woohoo! I am now the best Ultra player on both Facebook and tetrisfriends.com!

bumping my old blog.
two weeks ago, my roommate flamewheel91 was first on TF Ultra with 67652 and I was 3rd with 64509.
with the addition of this new "you can change movement speed/sensitivity" thing, flamewheel91 is at a previously-though-impossible 71958, while I am at 66014...
clearly this addition (which forces you to use tokens/rubies to buy the faster/more sensitive movement) is imba!

Who on TL still plays tetris friends? I just got into it recently. I was browsing the leaderboards and saw LosingID8 was ranked 5th overall in arena (technically tied for 1st) and flamewheel91 and ]343[ dominating the tetris ultra category, it's nice to see a TL representation. I'm sadly nowhere near as good (rank 10 arena, sprint of 1:45) but it's still lots of fun.
